OSTREE-LOG(1)
π OSTREE LOG(1) π
okay so bestie, welcome to the manual page for ostree log β the manual name is literally OSTREE LOG(1), and we're folding it in up top like a lil name tag π«Ά. This is the vibe check for showing a branch's commit history, and yes she ate.
πΈ NAME πΈ
ostree-log β shows the log starting at a commit or ref. That's the whole name, bestie, and it's iconic π
.
π¦ SYNOPSIS π¦
the whole fit is:
ostree log [OPTIONS...] {REF}
π DESCRIPTION π
it shows a log of commits to a given ref or branch β like a little timeline of what happened. Each entry includes the commit checksum, the timestamp, and the commit message. checksum, timestamp, message: the holy trinity, no cap β¨.
β¨ OPTIONS β¨
only one option in this fit, but she's lowkey important:
--rawβ show raw variant data. raw data, no filter, no extra prettying, periodt π«Ά.
π EXAMPLE π
run it like this, bestie:
$ ostree log my-branch

Initial commit
and that's the whole commit receipt β two commits, two timestamps, two messages, all exactly where they should be π.
π cute little sign-off: source/version is OSTree, manual is OSTREE LOG(1) β date? not in this footer, bestie, but the vibe is forever π«Άβ¨
